Addy Barrett, an 11-year-old girl from Maryland, the US, is a regular visitor to the zoo, and never gets tired of watching gorillas (大猩猩). “I really fell in love with these smart animals after reading a book about them,” Addy said. “I also learned they were being killed for unnecessary reasons. And I knew I needed to do something.”
Addy is now working to save her favorite animals. She has sold T-shirts and home-made cookies to raise money, and she hosts a party about the gorilla yearly.
Addy asked Meredith Bastian, a zookeeper, about the challenges that wild gorillas are facing and that many people ignore. Bastian said it’s because of habitat loss, climate change and the spread of disease. But there is also the problem of mining. “Some mines in Congo, Africa destroy gorillas’ habitats and make their living conditions worse,” Bastian told Addy.
Addy decided to start the Gorill a Heroes project. She has held fundraisers (筹款活动) hoping to start a conversation on the risks to gorillas. The animals, which are native to Central Africa, are endangered. There are fewer than 900 mountain gorillas and about 100,000 western lowland gorillas in the world. So far, Gorilla Heroes has raised more than $11,000. Addy was recently named a winner of the 2019 Gloria Barton Prize for Young Heroes for her work.
Addy hopes to get close to a gorilla in the wild, but she can’t because she is too young. So for now Addy is sticking to raising money for gorillas.
36. What can we learn about Addy
A. She seldom goes to the zoo. B. She works hard to save gorillas.
C. She writes books about gorillas. D. She volunteers for a zoo project.
37. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The importance of wild gorillas.
B. The measures for protecting wild gorillas.
C. The pleasant environment for wild gorillas.
D. The reasons for wild gorillas becoming endangered.
38. What does the underlined word “challenges” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Problems. B. Losses. C. Decreases. D. Damages.
39. How is Addy’s Gorill a Heroes project
A. It is quite dangerous. B. It includes many professions.
C. It is well recognized. D. It has made the zoo famous.
40. Which of the following can best describe Addy
A. Proud and childlike. B. Able and generous.
C. Talkative and interesting. D. Easy-going and humorous.
C
Children are starting on digital devices at ever younger ages, and opinions on the effects of children’s digital-media habits are deeply polarized (两极分化的).
Jean Twenge, a psychology professor, thinks excessive (过度的) use of the internet and social media makes children lonely and depressed and poses serious risks to their physical and particularly their mental health, sometimes to the point of driving them to suicide.
However, Daniel Kardefelt-Winther of the Innocent research office of Unicef examined various evidence and found less cause for alarm than is often suggested. Most of the studies he examined seem to show that the technology helps children stay in touch with their friends and make new ones.
The relationship between the use of digital technology and children’s mental health, broadly speaking, appears to be u-shaped. Researchers have found that moderate use is beneficial, whereas either no use at all or extreme use could be harmful.
What worries some experts more is that screens are becoming part of the middle-class armory(武器) for perpetuating (巩固) social advantage. Children from well-off homes are enrolled in private classes to learn skills like “How to be a YouTuber”, which poorer parents cannot afford.
41. What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. The disadvantages of overusing digital media.
B. The bad effects of using digital media.
C. Several bad impacts of using digital media.
D. The advantages of overusing digital media.
42. According to Jean Twenge, excessive use of Internet may lead the children ______.
A. lonely B. depressed C. suicide D. all the above
43. What is Daniel Kardefelt-Winther’s attitude to the use of digital media
A. Objective. B. Favorable. C. Indifferent D. Uncertain.
44. What can you infer from the last paragraph
A. Not all Children from rich homes can attend private classes
B. Not all Children from poor homes can learn skills like “how to be a YouTuber”.
C. Digital media is the only way of strengthening the middle-class.
D. Digital media can widen class gap.
45. What is the best title for the text
A. Should children interact with digital media
B. Should parents allow their children interact with digital media
C. What children do to interact with digital devices
D. How children interact with digital devices.

第四部分：写作(共两节，满分25分)
第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
My name is Clare, welcome to University College London Library. When you join the university you are given an ID card which also counts as your library card. So when you find the book you want to borrow you get your ID card, go to the reception desk and you give them the card and the book. They scan the book, put it onto your library record, the computer reads the bar code (条形码) — then you can borrow it.
To borrow a book, you need to come to the catalogue hall and get the computer screen. For example, we’re going for “book title”— if you click under “type word or phrase”— so we put in “Oliver Twist”, then click on “go” and it comes up with all the titles with Oliver Twist. So we’ll go with this one say the 1949 edition. It’ll tell you which library it’ll be in and how many copies are available, so we’ll then go and find the book.
The main problems that students have with using the library card are things like when the books haven’t been borrowed but cannot be found on the shelf. It’s likely that they’re often being used by someone in the library, so they are not on the shelf.
My advice when using the library card would be: ask others for help, either the librarians or other students. They’re more than delighted to help. So next time, don’t hesitate to ask, because we are here to help. Another good way is to come to a library tour. Most libraries will hold tours for new students within the first two weeks or so of term —make sure you come on one of the tours and they will show you where everything is and how it all works.
46. What is Clare’s job (no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
47. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about (no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
48. Where is it if a book that is not borrowed but cannot be found on the shelf (no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
49. What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 (no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
50. What do you think of your school library Why (no more than 20 words)

11. I'll be out for some time. ______ anything important happens, call me up immediately.
A. In case B. As if
C. Even though D. Now that
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】试题分析:A万一；B仿佛；C即使；D既然。根据句意可知：给我打电话的前提是如果发生重要的事情，所以前句话表示后面情况发生的一种条件，in case可以引导条件状语从句，故答案选A。句意：我要出去一会。万一有重要事情的话，立即给我打电话。
考点：考查状语从句的用法。
【名师点睛】本题考查了学生对状语从句的用法的理解，状语从句类别很多，做题时需要分析句子，本题中in case万一。是连词，引导条件状语从句。也就是说in case后面是一个完整的句子 in case anything important happens万一有重要事情的话，在没有in case情况下仍然是一个完整的句子。在做状语从句类型题时，先分析句子的结构，再了解每个连词的意思，然后根据语境选出答案。
12. The housing price keeps rising, ______ many people to give up the intention of buying houses in New York.
A. forcing B. to force C. forced D. having forced
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：房价不断上涨，迫使很多人放弃了在纽约买房打算。分析句子可知，动词force的逻辑主语是前面的句子，两者之间是主谓关系，应用现在分词，作结果状语。故选A。

---Yes. But with a lot of difficult problems ________, he is having a hard time.
A. settled B. settling C. to settle D. being settled
【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查with复合结构。句意：——我听说史密斯先生是新当选的贵校校长。——是的。但是有许多困难的问题要解决，他的日子不好过。在“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构中，若宾语补足语是不定式，不定式所表示的动作将要发生，且句子的主语是该动作逻辑上的执行者，此时不定式须用主动式。在该句with的复合结构中用动词不定式to settle作宾语补足语，且主动表示被动。故选C。
14. Dr. Li as well as her parents, ______hard to treat patients and develop medicines over the past two months.
A. are working B. have been working C. has been working D. is working
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查时态及主谓一致。句意：在过去的两个月里，李医生和她的父母一直在努力治疗病人和开发药物。该空动词work在句子作谓语，根据时间状语over the past two months可知，应该使用现在完成时会现在完成进行时，主语Dr. Li为单数人称，as well as her parents为插入语，her parents不是主语，所以谓语动词应使用单数形式。故选C项。
15. One of the most wonderful migrations in nature is ______ of the North American monarch butterfly.
A. one B. that C. it D. this
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查代词。句意：自然界中最奇妙的迁徙之一是北美帝王蝶的迁徙。空格处指代的是前面的一次迁徙（migration），指“迁徙”这件事，单数，因此用that指代前面出现的同类可数名词单数或不可数名词，故选B。

Addy Barrett, an 11-year-old girl from Maryland, the US, is a regular visitor to the zoo, and never gets tired of watching gorillas (大猩猩). “I really fell in love with these smart animals after reading a book about them,” Addy said. “I also learned they were being killed for unnecessary reasons. And I knew I needed to do something.”
Addy is now working to save her favorite animals. She has sold T-shirts and home-made cookies to raise money, and she hosts a party about the gorilla yearly.
Addy asked Meredith Bastian, a zookeeper, about the challenges that wild gorillas are facing and that many people ignore. Bastian said it’s because of habitat loss, climate change and the spread of disease. But there is also the problem of mining. “Some mines in Congo, Africa destroy gorillas’ habitats and make their living conditions worse,” Bastian told Addy.
Addy decided to start the Gorill a Heroes project. She has held fundraisers (筹款活动) hoping to start a conversation on the risks to gorillas. The animals, which are native to Central Africa, are endangered. There are fewer than 900 mountain gorillas and about 100,000 western lowland gorillas in the world. So far, Gorilla Heroes has raised more than $11,000. Addy was recently named a winner of the 2019 Gloria Barton Prize for Young Heroes for her work.

Children are starting on digital devices at ever younger ages, and opinions on the effects of children’s digital-media habits are deeply polarized (两极分化的).
Jean Twenge, a psychology professor, thinks excessive (过度的) use of the internet and social media makes children lonely and depressed and poses serious risks to their physical and particularly their mental health, sometimes to the point of driving them to suicide.
However, Daniel Kardefelt-Winther of the Innocent research office of Unicef examined various evidence and found less cause for alarm than is often suggested. Most of the studies he examined seem to show that the technology helps children stay in touch with their friends and make new ones.
The relationship between the use of digital technology and children’s mental health, broadly speaking, appears to be u-shaped. Researchers have found that moderate use is beneficial, whereas either no use at all or extreme use could be harmful.
What worries some experts more is that screens are becoming part of the middle-class armory(武器) for perpetuating (巩固) social advantage. Children from well-off homes are enrolled in private classes to learn skills like “How to be a YouTuber”, which poorer parents cannot afford.
41. What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. The disadvantages of overusing digital media.
B. The bad effects of using digital media.
C. Several bad impacts of using digital media.
D. The advantages of overusing digital media.
42. According to Jean Twenge, excessive use of Internet may lead the children ______.
A. lonely B. depressed C. suicide D. all the above
43. What is Daniel Kardefelt-Winther’s attitude to the use of digital media
A. Objective. B. Favorable. C. Indifferent D. Uncertain.
44. What can you infer from the last paragraph
A. Not all Children from rich homes can attend private classes
B. Not all Children from poor homes can learn skills like “how to be a YouTuber”.
C. Digital media is the only way of strengthening the middle-class.
D. Digital media can widen class gap.
45. What is the best title for the text
A. Should children interact with digital media
B. Should parents allow their children interact with digital media
C. What children do to interact with digital devices
D. How children interact with digital devices.
【答案】41. A 42. D 43. B 44. D 45. A

Children from well-off homes are enrolled in private classes to learn skills like “How to be a YouTuber”, which poorer parents cannot afford.(更让一些专家担心的是，屏幕正在成为中产阶级保持社会优势的武器之一。富裕家庭的孩子们报名参加私人课程，学习“如何成为一名YouTuber”等技能，而贫穷的父母负担不起。)”可知，数字媒体会扩大阶级差距。故选D项。
【45题详解】
主旨大意题。分析全文内容可指，文章主要介绍了关于儿童数字媒体习惯影响的不同观点，所以A选项“儿童应该与数字媒体互动吗 ”能概括全文内容，适合用作文章标题。故选A项。
第Ⅱ卷 非选择题(满分25分)
第四部分：写作(共两节，满分25分)
第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
My name is Clare, welcome to University College London Library. When you join the university you are given an ID card which also counts as your library card. So when you find the book you want to borrow you get your ID card, go to the reception desk and you give them the card and the book. They scan the book, put it onto your library record, the computer reads the bar code (条形码) — then you can borrow it.
To borrow a book, you need to come to the catalogue hall and get the computer screen. For example, we’re going for “book title”— if you click under “type word or phrase”— so we put in “Oliver Twist”, then click on “go” and it comes up with all the titles with Oliver Twist. So we’ll go with this one say the 1949 edition. It’ll tell you which library it’ll be in and how many copies are available, so we’ll then go and find the book.
The main problems that students have with using the library card are things like when the books haven’t been borrowed but cannot be found on the shelf. It’s likely that they’re often being used by someone in the library, so they are not on the shelf.
My advice when using the library card would be: ask others for help, either the librarians or other students. They’re more than delighted to help. So next time, don’t hesitate to ask, because we are here to help. Another good way is to come to a library tour. Most libraries will hold tours for new students within the first two weeks or so of term —make sure you come on one of the tours and they will show you where everything is and how it all works.
46. What is Clare’s job (no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
47. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about (no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
48. Where is it if a book that is not borrowed but cannot be found on the shelf (no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
49. What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 (no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
50. What do you think of your school library Why (no more than 20 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
【答案】46. He (She) is one of the librarian staff.
47. How to borrow a book in the library.
48. It’s probably being used in the library.
49. They’re very/extremely glad/happy to help you. Or: They’re well pleased to help you.
50. It’s helpful to us because it has plenty of goodbooks to borrow and read.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，是伦敦大学学院图书馆的使用指南。
【46题详解】
考查推理判断。根据第一段“My name is Clare, welcome to University College London Library.(我叫克莱尔，欢迎来到伦敦大学学院图书馆。)”推知，Clare是图书管理员之一。故答案为He (She) is one of the librarian staff.
【47题详解】
考查主旨大意。根据第二段“To borrow a book, you need to come to the catalogue hall and get the computer screen. For example, we’re going for “book title”— if you click under “type word or phrase”— so we put in “Oliver Twist”, then click on “go” and it comes up with all the titles with Oliver Twist. So we’ll go with this one say the 1949 edition. It’ll tell you which library it’ll be in and how many copies are available, so we’ll then go and find the book.(要借书，你需要到目录厅拿电脑屏幕。例如，我们要搜索“书名”——如果你点击“键入单词或短语”——我们输入“雾都孤儿”，然后点击“搜索”，它就会出现所有与雾都孤儿有关的书名。我们就选1949年的版本吧。它会告诉你这本书在哪个图书馆，有多少本可用，然后我们就去找这本书。)”可知，第二段主要讲的是如何在图书馆借书，故答案为How to borrow a book in the library.
【48题详解】
考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段“It’s likely that they’re often being used by someone in the library, so they are not on the shelf.(很可能它们经常被图书馆里的人使用，所以它们不在书架上。)”可知，如果一本书没有借，但在书架上找不到，它可能正在被阅读，故答案为It’s probably being used in the library.
【49题详解】
考查词句猜测。根据最后一段“So next time, don’t hesitate to ask, because we are here to help.(所以下次，不要犹豫，尽管问，因为我们是来帮忙的。)”可知，图书管理员或其他学生是非常乐意帮忙的，划线句子意思是“他们非常乐意帮忙”。故答案为They’re very/extremely glad/happy to help you. Or: They’re well pleased to help you.
【50题详解】
